Abstract

Nanotechnology represents a groundbreaking frontier in agriculture, offering promising solutions for enhancing fruit crop quality and yield. Through the development of nanofertilizers, nanostimulants, and nanoscale delivery systems, nanotechnology can address critical challenges in nutrient management, stress resistance, and crop protection. However, the adoption of these innovations is not without challenges, including environmental risks, high production costs, regulatory uncertainties, and public acceptance issues. As research progresses, it is crucial to balance the benefits of nanotechnology with careful consideration of its potential impacts. Ensuring the safe and sustainable integration of nanotechnology in agriculture will require interdisciplinary collaboration, robust regulatory frameworks, and transparent communication with stakeholders. Ultimately, if these challenges are effectively addressed, nanotechnology has the potential to significantly contribute to the future of sustainable agriculture and global food security.
